July 19, 2013 Houston Texas ----- Texas EquuSearch Founder/Director Tim
Miller believes there is hope for finding the sailing vessel S/V Nina and its
seven (7) passengers alive. Concerned family member and friends are hoping to
utilize the resources of the American government and any other private resources
available to continue the search including covering the NZ Air Force fuel costs
to continue search efforts. NZ has a relatively small population and outside
support is necessary to continue the at-sea search efforts. The captain and crew
represent Americans from 5 different states and an Englishman. Contributions can
be made to the Texas EquuSearch S/V Nina Search Fund. See below.

"Lost Is Not Alone" Help Us help Them.

July 21, 2013 ----- "Just wanted to say best
wishes, and keep looking. Yes, Ninaís situation looks serious and is very
concerning, but sailing can offer miracles. My parents were lost at sea for
several weeks after a big storm, were effectively declared dead by the media,
but made it back under jury rig. A couple of years ago my friend was dis-masted
out of Cape Town and eventually made it to Hobart under jury rig. His radio
aerial had broken away so he couldnít transmit but he could hear us, so he knew
he hadnít been forgotten. You are doing the right thing by keeping looking. Most
of it will be up to them if they are still out there, but we wonít see them if
we donít keep looking. My very best wishes, and I hope at the least that the
families questions can be answered." ---wiredFiji
